Shyna climbed up into a tree near where Amira and the others were, she wanted to know what was going on, but needed a bit of space. She sat on a branch, and listened to what was going on.

OOC: Note: IN RED BLOOD CITY THERE IS NO SUN!!! THE PARK IS APART OF THE CITY. Though when you go to the very far end of the park to the Night Rain Forest that is the breaking point. Night Rain does of sun during the day.
Amira still look out over the water. "I was just passes through and saw this boy over here..." She said pointing to him that she relaesed the demond from he sat on the other side of her now, "And needed help so I was here to do such that." She paused for a moment taking in the beautiful water as it danced lightly in the red blood moon light. "I just go where the wind takes me my friend and it whispered back that I needed to be here and it was a blessing because now he is free but my work isnt done yet. Never is and I like to keep it that way. I have a lot of safe places in this city and in the Night Rain Forest."
Amira then turned to the half leopard girl. "I have a friend in the forest that could help you and teach you a lot. He can then take you to another city were another friend is like you. She is pure cat woman. Well she might even be in the forest but one never knows till one travels."
Then their was the sound of flapping. Buddy Amira's bird flew through the sky and dove down landing on her shoulder. She petted him under his chin. "Welcome back my friend." Then she turned back to Apollo. "Helping is just what I do and if you want to join and being apart of an adventure your more then welcome too. The choice is yours." Then she turned and looked out over the watch once more.

smiling he looked over the water "I have brought so much darkness to this world I would like to atone for the many sins that I had made in the past." laying then on his back he looked to the black sky "like that for example if there was any way I could bring even just a day of light to this city I would feel better about some of what I have done."

Kevin's head was pounding as he flew through red blood park in his van, the sound of one of his buddy's in the army shouting at him telling him to get to safety before this new enemy revealed himself. Leaving Red Blood was not an option to him though, no Kevin was in it for the long haul, till the end of his days. The van skidded as he made a sharp turn and ripped off the headset at the same time. He had listened to enough for now and was almost at his destination, an old friend he had fought beside during the last battle in Red Blood.
Within a moment he was ten meters from Amira and what appeared to be her friends, he had no time to scope out the area for threats but as far as he could tell it was just Amira and two other men. His car sparked as he braked hard and turned the instant the car stopped he roled out of the front seat rifle in hand. He did a quick scan of the area before even saying anything. After he finished he stood up and walked over, he still had his rifle ready and kept walking forward till he was right next to them. He looked up and down at both the men she was with not recognizing them he chose to ignore them for the time being. He looked at Amira he knew he was giving away there situation purely through his facial expressions.
"Amira, we need to talk... in private." Kevin reached into one of the pockets on his flak jacket pulling out a few cigarettes offering to those present still focusing his eyes on Amira though.
ooc: popping in =)

OOC: Nice to see you again old friend. ^_^
Amira watched as the van came flying threw the park. She let spoke in a ease tone so the two men and the cat girl in the tree could hear her. "No need to be alarmed. He is a friend."
As she watched him when he gave to a quick stop he popped out and she smiled just so slightly at his movements and action she missed seeing that in him. As least one of her two humans still needed her. When he came over she noticed he didnt give a full care to the others with her. That was unlike him or maybe being around her so long others that she wasnt battling at the moment must seem fine to others as in passed friends. When he demanded to talk with her alone something was up again. So she looked to the two men then up at the girl and nodded. "I will be jsut over here. One moment." Then she looked to Kevin smiling a little bigger at him she started to walk towards his van with him so they could talk alone.

Shyna sat in the tree, resting on the branch. She was very interested in the cat woman Amira spoke of, and definitely wanted to meet her. She thought for a moment, and then said to herself, "I want to meet her, but I'll stick around for a little longer."
When Shyna heard a van screeching through the night -or day, you couldn't really tell here with all the darkness- she jumped and turned on the branch, in a defense position. She climbed out on her hands and knees to the end of the branch, that sagged slightly under her weight, and saw the man with the gun. The hairs on the back of her neck stood up as Shyna looked at the gun. Too many times has a gun been pointed at me, She thought.
But the man didn't point the gun at anybody there, or at least purposely. And he obviously knew Amira. She didn't take a cigarette, because she always felt as if those kind of things owned the user. Not Shyna's style at all. But instead, Shyna dropped her legs on the branch and swung upside-down to get a better look at everybody. As Amira walked away to speak with the man, Shyna only shrugged.

OOC: Sorry i forgot to wright in that the light I put in as his deity.
Arthas spun around as soon as he heard the sound of the van skidding across the park. Arthas just gave a weird stair, he had no idea what that thing was that the man came in on. Arthas was just about to step forward when he heard Amira say that he was a friend of hers, and backed down.
Seeing the half leopard swing upside down Arthas tires to start a conversation with her. You in the tree, what race are you, I haven't seen you're kind ever.[/b]

listening the the man beside him but not paying any of the to much attention Apollo opened his hand and made a map. out of light as he tinkered with it showing places he had been and where they were. he then put the palms of his hand together making the map disrepair between them then looking toward the lake thinking about all that darkness that he had created in the past and how he had to atone for his sins he closed his eyes and lowered his head. there were so many things that he wished he hadn't done in the past but it was to late now.
OOC-NUKELES!!!!!!!

Once she began to follow Kevin started to be more cautious, now spotting the person... cat... in the tree he nudged his head toward her and then looked back at Amira to see if she was aware of the cats presence once he got the ok he went back to the topic.
Reaching into his black unmarked van he pulled out one of the many pieces of electronics and communications devices till he found his huge laptop, the one that seemed ancient to anyones eyes, but he knew that only old school hackers can crack old school hardware. He waited for it to load and began to talk to Amira.
"I suppose now would be a good time for the cliche words I'm getting to old for this" He smirked and gave her a wink then glanced back at the laptop. "I'm sure you've sensed the new power thats come to town and I may even be way late but I work with what I'm given and this is what I got." He turned the laptop screen to face her wondering if she had ever even seen such a device. The screen had an extremely blurry picture of a winged creature flying above Red Blood carrying a blood dripping body in its talons. Beside it was the armies files on the creature and in huge words across the file it said TOP SECRET: DRACULA. Kevin looked at Amira awaiting her response, he hadn't believed in this fairy tale before yesterday.
"It couldn't have been more then ten hours ago I was hunting a nest of blood suckers..." He paused thinking if she may find that offensive, "... When they started running from me, not to say I aint gaining a rep but I found it a bit off. I assumed it was a trap which is why I had to press forward. Once I got to the end of the cemetery I saw this thing fly over me. I checked the Armies files on things that look similar and this was all I found. Now I'm not sure if this is really what I saw so thats why I came to you." He took a deep drag of his cigarette. He had lived on his own for so long that talking this much hardly ever happened and he found that he was drifting further and further away from his humanity by how odd it felt to really communicate, he couldn't even think of how difficult a normal conversation about the weather would be like.
Kevin looked at Amira for a reaction, "So what do you think?" He asked relieved to be done his explaining.

Amira just stared at the picture. She had sensed the monster the moment he had awaken. Why she didnt know but she knew it wasnt Dracula. "I have sensed this beast. He had awaken over 20 hours ago so it seems he was really needing food at the time this picture was taken. I would have hated to be whatever it was he was carrying off." Amira was so mezmorized by the picture she didnt want to take her eyes off it.
"He is powerful then Dracula. A very old vampire. I wonder why he has awaken. Something must have happened to the point he has business to take care off." She wasnt really talking to Kevin at this point. Like talking aloud letting him hear her thoughts. Then she paused then finally breaking her vision from the laptop to look at Kevin. "He is known as The Count. Not sure what his real name is. No one has lived long enough when around him to learn it to beable to even speak of it but I do know that he likes to be called The Count for sure."
Then she looked back at the picture. "But what I know for sure we need to be perpared for anything he might try to do. Power in numbers for sure." Then she went quiet studying the figures dark figure with its glowing red eyes. Those eyes she wanted to destroy but at the same time had power behind them. She wanted to face off to him one on one. Hearing everything about this beast knowing Vandock was the only one that knew him because Vandock was more like his puppet. She learned of him last time she met Vandock. Hearing him talk about him only for a few moments but it was enough. Then she turned back to Kevin. "Do you have a plan?"

Kevin hadn't really had time to establish a plan yet once he had heard the news he had decided to form a team once again which is why he tracked down Amira.
"I was hoping you would be with another group of supernatural frea.... uh people." He had to get back into the momentum of being on the same team as his usual enemy, it was a hard adaptation he found. "We'll need a team to take whatever this guy is down," he muttered to himself and laughed at the creatures chosen name "the count." he chuckled a bit remembering his late daughter watching sesame street. The thought took over his mind for a second and he snapped himself back to the present. No time to dwell in the past.
Kevin began to observe Amira's current party. The two men both seemed to be of a brawler type which can come in handy however he had been hoping for some range. The cat person that had been hiding in the tree would allow for a nice amount of stealth and elegance the others were sure to lack, and of course there was Amira who had both benefits of a werewolf and a vampire.
He knew it was a long shot but they didn't have a choice. He turned to Amira, his expression showed pure confidence a true leader boosting morality you'd see being used as the poster for army registration but anyone with a sense of empathy would know that it was all an act for his fellow soldiers. "Amira, are they willing to die for you?... for these people?... for Red Blood?"

Amira looked to the people then back to Kevin. "One I know is for sure. He wants to account for his sins so he will do whatever he can. The other well I just freed him of a demon so I am not sure. He might want to start life anew and away from her and the cat woman in the tree I am not sure where she stands. In a few words my friend I just met them." She hated to think that her old team wasnt around anymore but she still had Hawk too. He never left Red Blood. He was bound to this city. Why she never understood it but never asked him of the reasons either. "Hawk is still in this city. Now I know at first you two didnt see eye to eye but by the end of all of it he did shake your hand so I know there is trust there now. I know he senses the beast to so we can go back to his apartment building once more with the newbes and let them know on the way whats going on." She looked to his van then back to him. "Nice set of wheels. I know they will come in handy." She paused for a moment letting that set in a moment with a very small grins then, "What do you think?"

Hawk Kevin should have seen that coming. They didn't have a great history but to Amira he was like a father and that meant any words he gave were treated as wisdom, Kevin didn't like that much. After they had taken care of the last threat they did seem to leave on good terms though and hopefully that speck of respect still remained. After all Kevin did respect him for his loyalty to Red Blood.
Looking at the newbes Kevin had a new set of eyes for them, distrust, it came with the job. If Amira didn't know them he didn't trust them. There had been a piece in the file about the count having spy's.
Kevin couldn't help but smile when Amira had brought up his van. The old GMC Safari looked like it had more bruises then Kevin ever took, but it was his home and his head quarters and served him well saving his life more times then he could remember.
"Alright how about you round up these folks then. As long as you keep an eye on them and make sure they don't start looking at our intel we should be fine, I'll get the car started." He turned around and got in the car through the passenger side shifting over he started the ignition. "Oh and Amira, you should hurry up some vamp lowlives appear to be trying to surround us." He said with a small grin nudging his head toward an exposed limb popping out from cover behind a large bush.

Shyna still hung in the tree upside-down. She looked at the ex-paladin and said calmly, "I'm just your average half leopard, half girl. Even though I have never seen any in my times. Just think of a cat woman, but with a bit more flair. And I'm able to transform completely, and hide all my cat features when I want." Shyna laughed, shaking the leaves on the branch gently.
Shyna grabbed the branch with her hands, and flipped herself around, lowering herself onto the ground. She couldn't help but hear some of the details of what Amira and the man were talking about. "Well," She said, "Whatever they're talking about sounds pretty exciting, monsters, fighting, the works. I'm in, sounds like a chance to do something."
And maybe make a difference, because nobody cares if I come out of it alive.

Arthas overheard Kevin and Amira talking and decides to step in. It would be an hornor to assist you in your task.[/b] Arthas spoke proudly such as a Paladin normally would speak, this task would be an excellent way to prove to his dieaty that he is worthy once more.
